Ch28: Human Development Explain the stages of development starting with fertilization and ending with the neonatal period. Discuss the major events of the first, second, and third trimesters of development. Review the changes occurring in some organs as the infant goes from life in utero to neonate. week 10 Medical ppt http://hastaneciyiz.blogspot.com

Embryonic development Prenatal Development Embryonic development fertilization - 8 weeks Fetal development 9 weeks - birth time period from fertilization to birth = gestation Postnatal Development

Oocyte at Ovulation 2º oocyte arrested in Metaphase II Completion of Meiosis only if fertilization occurs Follicular cells of corona radiata protect ovum as it breaks through ovary wall Fig 28-1

Fertilization Viability of gametes: Taking place in ?? Viability of gametes: Oocyte 12-24 h Sperm 12-48 h Acrosome contains hyaluronidase  acrosomal reaction breaks down intercellular cement between adjacent follicle cells Single sperm fuses with oocyte amphimixis - fusion of sperm and oocyte pronuclei

The first Trimester weeks 1-12; fetus size ~ 3 in.; weight ~ 14 g Cleavage Implantation Placentation Embryogenesis Basic organ plan and tissues laid out – most susceptible to damage or disorganization at this time

Cleavage Early division of zygote into multiple cells without increase in size, partitions contents Morula solid ball of cells Zygote Blastocyst with blastocoele cavity

Implantation - embedding of blastocyst into uterine lining begins at day 7 Blastocyst - with blastocoele cavity Trophoblast - outer layer of cells Inner cell mass - will form embryo Trophoblast forms syncytial trophoblast- erodes into endometrium Cellular trophoblast - carries nutrients to inner cell mass Lacunae and primary villi formed by trophoblast All of these form placental tissues Fig 28-3

Day 10 Embryo completely embedded in endometrium Amnion and yolksac visible Blastodisc formation (2 cell layers) Epiblast Hypoblast

Gastrulation: 3 Germ Layers Formed day 12: Ectoderm (forms from epiblast) Nervous system Epidermis Endoderm (forms from hypoblast) Mucosae (eg: GI-tract Associated glands Mesoderm Everything else

Formation of Extra-embryonic Membranes visible after day 10: Amnion – Protection of embryo/fetus Yolk sac – Early site of blood cell formation

Placentation Development of placenta from edges of blastocyst Fig 28-5 Development of placenta from edges of blastocyst Placenta = organ that forms from the chorion and the endometrium and allow the embryo/fetus to exchange nutrients and waste. Chorionic villi provide surface area for exchange Nutrient and gas exchange happens without actual blood exchange Umbilical cord - contains two umbilical arteries and one umbilical vein Fig 28-6

Embryogenesis Following gastrulation, formation of viable embryo Head fold and tail fold develop Critical period organogenes Teratogens, Teratology = ? Rubella and syphilis X-rays FAS and smoking

Second and Third Trimester After the end of 8 weeks: Fetal development Week 12: all organ systems laid out Most teratogens not lethal anymore – but produce major defects 3rd trimester mostly for size increase and maturity. Fig. 28-7

Labor and Delivery The End 22 weeks of gestation absolute minimum (normal?) Parturition: Expulsion of fetus and placenta due to fetal oxytocin  Stages of labor 1. dilation stage - cervix stretches 2. expulsion stage - fetus delivered 3. placental stage - placenta expelled The End Fig. 28-9/10 Medical ppt http://hastaneciyiz.blogspot.com
